Ohashi | July 28, 1992 |
An IC package storage container has a conductive tubular-shaped body within which is housed a plurality of IC packages and includes a non-conductive transparent window in one wall of the body. Conductive protrusions or projections are formed on and integral with the inside of the tubular-shaped body and extend into the interior of the container body to be in close proximity with a surface of the IC packages. The protrusions formed on adjacent sides of the transparent window and arranged substantially parallel thereto for the length of the container body. The length of the protrusions are such that they concurrently prevent substantial lateral shifting and rotational orientation of the IC packages within the tubular-shaped container body and prevent contact with the transparent window.
